MICHAEL Reiziger says he would relish a move to Manchester United and is tired of being kept in the dark over the speculation linking him to Old Trafford.

Barcelona's Dutch International defender has been touted as a future right back by United as Sir Alex Ferguson attempts to shore up his shaky back line.

The 28-year-old signed a new contract with Barcelona in the summer but his first team chances have been limited this term and he is far from happy warming the bench week after week.

Speaking on his personal web site, he said: ''I wish a decision could be made because I would rather be playing for United than sitting on the bench here.

''Manchester United is such a great club that there isn't a player who wouldn't like to play for them. It has always been an ambition of mine to eventually play in the Premiership, but the real draw for me would be to play for Alex Ferguson's team.''
